1. Vaccination numbers are down because "can't trust them", according to the Government. If your kid is strong, no need to worry, according to Oz and RFK Jr...
2. Parents are losing insurance coverage, or they've had to downgrade their insurance, so they're waiting longer to take the kid to a clinic or waiting it out at home because "it's just a cold, not something serious" - until it is and the fever spikes so high it either kills the kid or causes organ damage.
